As the final talk of my trip to the East Coast, I will be speaking to the RubyNation conference in Reston, Virginia on Saturday, April 10th. I worked in Reston back when the unofficial motto was “We’re not dead, we’re Reston.” Things have livened up considerably since then and I’m looking forward to connecting with some old friends and colleagues while I am in the area.
